The general assembly hereby finds and declares that:

(1) The state should be a leader in sustainability and should offer sustainable practices to state agencies as a core administrative service;

(3) Ensuring state compliance with environmental mandates is critical to the future of our state and our nation;

(4) Sustainable state agency operations conserve water and offset the estimated future water needs of up to seven hundred forty thousand additional acre feet as outlined in the 2023 Colorado water plan adopted by the Colorado water conservation board; and

(5) Coordinating sustainable practices is best accomplished through the creation of an office focused on the state's operations, capital construction projects, and procurement.
